Air Transat is expanding its summer 2026 program with a new non-stop service from Toronto to Accra (ACC), Ghana.
The route will operate from June 17 to October 22, 2026, with two weekly flights on Wednesdays and Sundays.
“We are honoured to be the first and only airline to offer a direct connection between Canada and Ghana,” said Sebastian Ponce, chief revenue officer at Transat, in a press release.
“This non-stop service between Toronto and Accra aligns with our growth strategy on the African continent and directly responds to the needs of the Ghanaian diaspora in Ontario as well as the increasing interest in travelling to Ghana.
It will also provide travellers with an entirely new, simplified connectivity option, eliminating the long European layovers that were previously required.”
The announcement follows the recent unveiling of new services to Dakar and Agadir, as well as the well-established year-round operation to Marrakech.
Accra becomes the airline’s fourth destination on the African continent.
Other non-stop routes to be offered out of Toronto by Air Transat include Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) Istanbul (Türkiye), Medellín (Colombia), and Georgetown (Guyana).
